He was predeceased by his brothers: Antonio and Eugene and his sister, Santina Nasso. Joe served in the Navy during World War II and was a retired boilermaker. Joe and Donna were foster parents but his greatest pleasure was doing Christian Day Care. Joe was a member of Unico. He loved his family and he loved to travel.

The saving grace of Jesus Christ was paramount in Joe's life. At age sixty he dedicated his life to serve Jesus and become a student of the word and at times had Bible Class at his home. We love him and will miss him very much.

Visitation will be held from 1 to 3 p.m. on Saturday, June 15th at Brooks Funeral Home, 481 Gidney Ave., Newburgh. A funeral service will follow at 3 p.m. with Pastor TJ Ried officiating.
